Chapter 34: Little A-Li

Dadada—

The carriage stopped in front of a nondescript shop.

The name of the store is very interesting, it is called Xi Ornament.

It is hung with a very ordinary wooden card, the font has no rules, and I don't know who it is.

Jiang sake got out of the carriage and saw such a scene.

There were no customers in the store, just an old craftsman and his granddaughter who were concentrating on making jewelry.

The old craftsman was about the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, his beard was sloppy, his temples were gray, and his eyes were bright when he looked at the jewelry, and he did not notice the arrival of ginger sake intently.

The old craftsman opened a shop and did business capriciously, and only took orders that he was interested in.

Moreover, the customer needs to provide the raw materials himself, and he only charges manual fees.

The price is determined by the customer, and the customer is satisfied with the money, and if he is not satisfied, he will not be satisfied. This is such a temper, some people with a try mentality are very surprised after receiving the finished product, feel that no one in the world has such a level, and accept his strange temper.

And one to ten, ten to hundred, many people come to him to make jewelry.

He doesn't care what the status of the customer is, he treats everyone equally. He only focuses on the jewelry in front of him.

Jiang Qingshu observed for a while, knowing that if he didn't make a sound, he wouldn't notice the arrival.

"Master Qiu, I wonder if my pair of wrenches has been completed?" Jiang Sake asked coldly but politely.

"It's you, pretty girl." The old craftsman's surname is Qiu Mingfu, and he only has an eight-year-old granddaughter who depends on him. The son and daughter-in-law both died unexpectedly and tragically.

The old craftsman's wife also died of illness because she couldn't stand the bad news.

Leaving the old master and his young granddaughter alone in the world.

"Okay, the wrench and the jade ring are all ready, it's a pair." Master Qiu's voice was hoarse and low, he had not spoken for a long time, and his timbre had gone through the vicissitudes of life, and he had experienced the precipitation of the years.

One of the distinctive features of the body of the moundan is that the dorsal bones protrude and are conical in shape.

The old man hunched over and staggered forward a few steps and took out a quaint box, which opened and contained the pair of wrench jade rings designed by ginger sake.

The jade ring and wrench are both bamboo rings, representing small mangosteen.

It's a small pet they encounter together.

The female ring is engraved with a boat with three ripples of water underneath; The same is true for male wrenches.

Jiang Qingjiu looked at the pair of jade rings and couldn't help but think of the appearance of the man receiving the ring.

I don't know what his expression will be.

I don't know if he knows what it means.

The jade is Hetian green jade, crystal clear, the jade is warm and moist like mutton fat, the whole body is green, there is rainbow light lingering inside, and the room is full of brilliance. Although it is not as rare as the red jade pendant sent by Gu Xingzhou, it is also the best jade in the jade.

Holding it in the palm of your hand, it makes people calm and relaxed.

The craftsmanship of the old craftsman is indeed worthy of its name, exquisite and exquisite, and it can be called perfect, which is the feeling that Jiang sake wants.

Looking at Jiang Sake's satisfied smile, the old craftsman was also in a good mood.

"This is for your sweetheart, isn't it?" The old craftsman teased.

"No, it's just a return gift from a life-saver." Jiang Qingjiu's roots behind his ears were red, and he was busy denying it.

The old craftsman smiled and said nothing.

"Master Qiu, this is tail gold. You put it away. After Jiang Sake finished speaking, he was about to leave.

"Girl, you don't need so much, this ingot is more than enough. I made a bracelet for you with the rest of the material, and I saw that you were destined for me, so I gave it to you. ”

"See if you like it?"

Jiang Qingjiu didn't expect that there would be an accident, and he couldn't help but smile, "If you like it, then I'll be disrespectful, thank you, Master Qiu." ”

Jiang Qingjiu thought that since Master Qiu didn't accept it, he could only repay it from other aspects.

Jiang Qingjiu looked around, and suddenly a small figure appeared in his sight.

So I whispered to Zhutao.

When I came to the courtyard, I saw Master Qiu's granddaughter playing alone, and stepped forward to talk, "How to play this game, can you teach me?" ”

I saw that the little girl who was bouncing raised her head and bloomed a big smile, and her voice was soft, "Hey, beautiful sister!" You look good. ”

"You'll look better than I do."

"What's your name?"

"My name is Ah Li, and my grandfather said that I was born in the season when the pear blossoms are in full bloom, so I named Ah Li."

"Hello Little Ali, you can call me Sister Tilt."

"Sister Tilt, this is called hopscotch. It's fun, put the sandbag in the first grid first, jump the grid in order, and the grid with the sandbag can't jump. ”

"One square is a one-legged jump, two squares is a two-foot jump, jumping to the roof is the ninth grid, come back and pick up the sandbag, start jumping the second grid with both feet on the ground, and after jumping all nine squares, you win."

"Shall we Bibi?"

"Okay." Ginger sake is refreshing.

It just so happens that the clothes to wear when going out today are very convenient.

The sunset fell on the ground, and the two figures, one large and one small, overlapped alternately, and laughter appeared in the small courtyard for a long time.

Even the Qiu craftsman who was immersed in making ornaments heard it and smiled knowingly.

Before I knew it, half an hour passed, and when Zhutao came back, she heard Xiao Ali shouting happily, "Wow, I won!" ”

"Sister Tilt, you must be unfamiliar, you can defeat me if you are as familiar as me." After Xiao Ali finished speaking, she comforted Jiang Sake.

"Ah Li is so good! Now, the reward for winning. Jiang sake took out a string of rock sugar gourds.

"Rock sugar gourd!" Ah Li's voice was full of excitement, and her eyes were shining.

"And this little sugar man, look, doesn't look like you."

"Wow, like me." Ah Li was amazed while eating the sugar gourd.

"That's all I can eat for today's portion of sugar." Ginger sake doesn't plan to make Ari eat more sugar.

"Huh?"

"You're still young, you can't be greedy for sugar, for your good health, be good!"

"I'll bring it to you next time."

"It's a deal." Hearing the latter sentence, Ah Li's deflated mouth opened up and laughed again.

"It's a deal."

"Then when will I see you next time, Sister Tilting?"

"I don't know about this, this is for you, hang it on your pear tree when you want to see me, and I will come to you when I see it." Jiang sake brought the hair representing the princess to Xiao Ari.

"Well, I remember, Sister Tilt." Xiao Ali nodded heavily.
